4A116-110 - Desert Dry Molecular Sieve Desiccant

Molecular Sieve - Type 4A

Molecular Sieve Type 4A is the sodium form of Zeolite.
Type 4A is typically used in regenerable drying systems.
It removes water vapor or contaminants with a smaller critical diameter than 4 angstroms.
With a smaller pore size, Type 4A is less subject to contamination.
However, the moisture absorption rate will be less than that of Type 13X.
